Boyle Feted By College of Architecture At Rally Meeting
Sounding action and optimism as the keynote of their campaign, approximately 200 enthusiastic supporters of Bob Boyle ln the campaign for the student body presidency attended the rally given last night by the College of Architecture ln their exhibit room.
Lauding Boyle as Uie “logical man to lead the Associated Students next year from the standpoint of logic and ability,” campus leaders representing both organized and Independent groups on the campus praised the record of their candidate.
Stressing Boyle as the “rtght-ful choice of the students for the piesidency,” Ray Stevens, former president of the College of Architecture, opened the meeting by giving the record of the candidate since his entrance into Southern California. Stevens then introduced Boyle as "our candidate and your candidate.’*
“The splendid spirit and backing that you have shown,” stated Boyle, “means more to me than winning or losing.
“One of the most significant features of the campaign Is the organization of the Independents. I sincerely believe that their statement of policy is one of the fairest Btands that I have seen; one \Vhich a candidate must live up If he ls to maintain a solid front In the Internal affairs as well as the rushing program of the university. I am actively in support of this movement and their ideals and aims, and I believe a sincere study of our platform will show that we have provided for recognition of the Independents ln many more ways than they have asked.”
In seconding Boyle's stand thai the independents should be given their rigthful place in student government, Harry Proctor, campaign manager, declared that “the platform represents approximately the same aims as the Indepen dents have expreased In their policy statement.”

Mohler Leads Backers In Meeting At Women’s Residence Hall
Stating that no campaign promises had yet been made by bis party, Orville Mohler, candidate for student body president, ad dressed 209 studeuts who gathered at the Women’s Residence hall laat night “1 agreed to run for this offlce only on the condition that there be no promises,’ he said.
In Ills speech to Vis supporters, Mohler reiterated portions of his platform, adopted earlier in the campaign. Among them were the greater unification of the campus, and continuation of high scholastic standards for the university. Mohler also made mention of the recent Independent movement on the campus, and said that he endorsed the two resolutions passed by the orga nization.
RUSHING IS ISSUE “We must Interest off-campus students In the extra-curricular activities of the university,” said Mohler. '^Student* in the colleges of dentistry and music should come into closer contact with the main body. Their prob lems should be our problems.” He went on to say that rushing should be done for the benefit of the university as a whole, not for any particular college. “Let us direct new- students first to the university, then let them branch out to the professional schools.'1
The Independent movement is a new power which will better the university, Mohler staetd. He endorsed the two resolutions pas Bed by the new organization requesting recognition ln the StU' dent Body government.
“In such a large organization as ours progressive movements arise that must be coped with. A new situation has come up In the form of the Independent movement, and speaking frankly, there are two alternatives as I see lt, after much consideration,
First, it may precipitate open conflict betwen fraternity and nonorganization students which we know would not be for the betterment of the university. Secondly, (Continued on page two)

DAWES SAYS DEPRESSION GOING AWAY
Fiery Chairman Attacks Evils Of Bonus Bill In House Group
WASHINGTON, April 21—(UP) | —Charles O. Hawes banged his j pipe on a table today and. with many explosive "damns” and “hells," said conditions are getting I better.
The country should slop watching the “peanut stand' stock mar- , ket In Wall street because It Is a deceiving magnifying glass, Dawes said.
The chairman of the recon j struction finance corporation de livered a lecture on sound sense 1 and confidence when he appeared before the house ways and means committee to start the adminis- ! tration onslaught against Ihe sol | dier bonus bill.
WARNS SOLONS
Passage of the Patman bill for Issuance of $2,000,000,000 in currency, he said, would “shake the soundness of the United Slates government Itself” and would be an Invitation for the United States to “start on that primrose path Germany followed until the mark went down.”
He said such an Issue of currency as proposed ln the Patman bill “would have a disastrous effect from the country’s currency system, upon the credit of the federal government and upon tho entire credit structure of our country."
Under the Influence of the reconstruction finance corporation, Dawes said, bank failures have been checked and he gave very encouraging flgures to prove it.
"We in our positions are realizing that there is a marked change In tbe situation,’’ he declared. “The banks are beginning to make loans.”
*'We don't aeed one more dollar in money,” he said lo referring to the bonus. “We've got $900,-000,000 more In circulation than we had in 1919. The trouble ls lack of confidence.”

Boyle Feted By College of Architecture At Rally Meeting
Sounding action and optimism as the keynote of their campaign, approximately 200 enthusiastic supporters of Bob Boyle ln the campaign for the student body presidency attended the rally given last night by the College of Architecture ln their exhibit room.
Lauding Boyle as Uie “logical man to lead the Associated Students next year from the standpoint of logic and ability,” campus leaders representing both organized and Independent groups on the campus praised the record of their candidate.
Stressing Boyle as the “rtght-ful choice of the students for the piesidency,” Ray Stevens, former president of the College of Architecture, opened the meeting by giving the record of the candidate since his entrance into Southern California. Stevens then introduced Boyle as "our candidate and your candidate.’*
“The splendid spirit and backing that you have shown,” stated Boyle, “means more to me than winning or losing.
“One of the most significant features of the campaign Is the organization of the Independents. I sincerely believe that their statement of policy is one of the fairest Btands that I have seen; one \Vhich a candidate must live up If he ls to maintain a solid front In the Internal affairs as well as the rushing program of the university. I am actively in support of this movement and their ideals and aims, and I believe a sincere study of our platform will show that we have provided for recognition of the Independents ln many more ways than they have asked.”
In seconding Boyle's stand thai the independents should be given their rigthful place in student government, Harry Proctor, campaign manager, declared that “the platform represents approximately the same aims as the Indepen dents have expreased In their policy statement.”

In Ills speech to Vis supporters, Mohler reiterated portions of his platform, adopted earlier in the campaign. Among them were the greater unification of the campus, and continuation of high scholastic standards for the university. Mohler also made mention of the recent Independent movement on the campus, and said that he endorsed the two resolutions passed by the orga nization.
RUSHING IS ISSUE “We must Interest off-campus students In the extra-curricular activities of the university,” said Mohler. '^Student* in the colleges of dentistry and music should come into closer contact with the main body. Their prob lems should be our problems.” He went on to say that rushing should be done for the benefit of the university as a whole, not for any particular college. “Let us direct new- students first to the university, then let them branch out to the professional schools.'1
The Independent movement is a new power which will better the university, Mohler staetd. He endorsed the two resolutions pas Bed by the new organization requesting recognition ln the StU' dent Body government.
“In such a large organization as ours progressive movements arise that must be coped with. A new situation has come up In the form of the Independent movement, and speaking frankly, there are two alternatives as I see lt, after much consideration,
First, it may precipitate open conflict betwen fraternity and nonorganization students which we know would not be for the betterment of the university. Secondly, (Continued on page two)

WARNS SOLONS
Passage of the Patman bill for Issuance of $2,000,000,000 in currency, he said, would “shake the soundness of the United Slates government Itself” and would be an Invitation for the United States to “start on that primrose path Germany followed until the mark went down.”
He said such an Issue of currency as proposed ln the Patman bill “would have a disastrous effect from the country’s currency system, upon the credit of the federal government and upon tho entire credit structure of our country."
Under the Influence of the reconstruction finance corporation, Dawes said, bank failures have been checked and he gave very encouraging flgures to prove it.
"We in our positions are realizing that there is a marked change In tbe situation,’’ he declared. “The banks are beginning to make loans.”
*'We don't aeed one more dollar in money,” he said lo referring to the bonus. “We've got $900,-000,000 more In circulation than we had in 1919. The trouble ls lack of confidence.”
